Easily distinguishable from its congeners, in addition to the 
characters determining its sectional position, by the weakly 
spinous leaves with their very narrow divisions and rhachis, by 
the globular glomerules and common receptacle, &c. 
I have not been able to see the outer (common) involucre of 
this plant.
